Android Question Trouble with upgrading App for Android 11

[Steini1980]

Hi Guys,

I can currently no longer roll out apk updates for my non-market app for Android 11 tablets, so I have to upgrade my app to a newer SDK version.

As soon as I use new internal libs, such as FileProvider or RuntimePermissions, I get the following errors when compiling:

B4A Version: 11.00
Parse den Code.    (0.51s)
    Java Version: 11

Kompiliere den Code.    (1.44s)

d:\android\tools\..\extras\b4a_remote\androidx\core\core\1.6.0\unpacked-core-1.6.0\res\values\values.xml:188: error: resource android:attr/fontWeight not found.

Seems as if a path was entered incorrectly somewhere but I can't find the error. who can help me?

Delete your Android SDK and download a new one: https://www.b4x.com/b4a.html

Thank you Erel,
after reinstall I got this Error with Android-28.jar:

Byte-Code konvertieren - optimiert dex.    Error
Uncaught translation error: com.android.dx.cf.code.SimException: invalid opcode ba (invokedynamic requires --min-sdk-version >= 26)
Uncaught translation error: com.android.dx.cf.code.SimException: invalid opcode ba (invokedynamic requires --min-sdk-version >= 26)
2 errors; aborting

How can I solve this? There are still many devices with Android Lollipop (min-sdk 22) in use, but also some new devices with Android 11

after reinstall I got this Error with Android-28.jar:

If you reinstall you DO NOT INSTALL a android28 jar! A fresh setup installs platform 30 jar only.

So i expect you did something wrong or not doing a fresh reinstall at all.

Again:

- DELETE your SDK.
- Setup a new one.
- Make sure to configure the ide to use this new sdk. Select platforms-30/android.jar

@DonManfred: It's the same Error with Android-30.jar. I tried different Versions of the Android-SDK

. I tried different Versions of the Android-SDK

You MUST use the one here, and you MUST follow the instructions exactly and extract the zips with 7-ZIp

Do NOT run SDK Manager unless you really know why you need to.

Now it seems good, first attempt I moved the old ressources just in a Subfolder. Now I zipped this subfolder and deleted the folder.
After unpacking again, everything works fine.

Thanks a lot
